**American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

Down to the 12 finalists and tonight they get to try their hand with songs by Stevie Wonder. This could get very ugly for some of the contestants.

I see a real struggle for Chris, Kevin, Bucky and Kellie. I forsee us saying farewell to Kevin this week. What do you think?

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

Bucky will struggle the most, so I think he is history

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

I shorted Chris and bought more Taylor for a quick arb.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

it's going to end up being kevin, bucky, melissa in the bottom 3

That's not really an arb, but I do think it's a good play. I had earlier done that and some other portfolio moves. Kellie and Taylor are the buys right now, more detailed info in that thread, and I think Bucky will be in the Bottom 3 but it's either Kevin or Melissa who will go home tomorrow night.

Unless that nefarious Kevin's plan succeeds to steal votes because he dumped his girlfriend, what a man. The kid has let the fame go to his brain just in time for him to get booted in the next couple weeks. Brilliant.

Taylor and Elliot will fair the best with Stevie Wonder songs. Both of these singers have the type of voices to nail these songs. Elliot sang Stevie songs on two previous episodes.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

i said this in another thread...but here goes anyway.

the houston chronicle had an AI article today in which they predicted Mandisa as the winner.....that was pretty surprising to me.

they picked Chris as the runner up

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

They got the obese vote for them - NOT BEING CRUEL, just stating.

The Stevie Wonder songbook is extensive and much more varied than most would credit. I think many of the contestants will do fine if they make the appropriate choice of song. Do think that Chris will struggle ( Stevie did not do any grunge rock) and Kellie and Bucky are ill suited for Stevie's songs.

And Kevin - well, Kevin and Stevie Wonder songs should not be allowed in the same building.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

i was kinda hoping that chris will do 'in the city' or whatever it is called

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

Rumors are that Taylor will bust out the harmonica tonight. However, the producers do not want him to, as they have not allowed instruments in the past. It was still being decided late, b/c reportedly Stevie Wonder brought the idea up, so Taylor was practicing 2 versions, with and without, while the producers debated the topic.

This was being discussed on various AI forums, with a summary here.


Also, money is coming in on Bucky to leave, although that may not mean anything. For myself, I took a small position on Melissa going, as posted on my betting thread.

" The Stevie Wonder songbook is extensive and much more varied than most would credit. I think many of the contestants will do fine if they make the appropriate choice of song."

Agreed. Signed sealed, delivered or For once in my life are 2 songs I hope I will hear (performed well) tonight.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

Damn, missed Ace, but it sounds like he was otherwise forgettable? (HA!)

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

Yeah a pretty forgettable performance... no danger in going home but he definitely didn't blow anyone away tonight.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

Kellie is strugaling.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

Phew, glad I got the $9/share for Kellie while I could.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

Man, songs are going to get mangled tonight.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

i hate kellie so much. so much. please don't fall for her aww shucks routine!

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

i finally figured it out...

kellie pickler IS the female FORREST GUMP

damn it!!

i think that i've never in my whole life had an original thought!!

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

No defense for Kellie sucking, because I am not a fan of hers. But unfortunately, she has a large fanbase and the long-term support of the show, so she will go far in this competition.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

WTF are the judges watching? Bucky was atrocious.

Melissa has been gargling and swallowing "olive oil."

That is all.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

Dear Melissa

I can not understand the words coming out of your mouth.

I like Lisa, but she is better than that.

Edit: judges liked it more than i did, but i think its a function of a bad week.

Is Kevin some sort of extended f'ing joke on this show?

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

WTF RANDY? and Paula? This kid could barf on the stage and get good reviews.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

Kevin is kind of a little bitch.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

Damn, that Kevin Covias is so GANGSTA!

I thought he was cool standing up to Simon like that. Simon is way off in his criticism of both people and his proclmatation that Elliot was the best is kind of stupid. Randy is generally the most accurate judge and is a good medium between Paula and Simon.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

I bet that comment to Simon gets him on one more week.

Re: **American Idol Finals: Stevie Wonder Night
 

If the comment were witty at all, I'd support him, but that wasn't anything, IMO. I agree with you though.
